A Parrot 100 Years Old.
New York sun.

"My parrot is 100 years old, " said Erastus
Judd, living at COS Eln street. 81 have
had him for thirty years and my father
had him about forty years. old Putnam,
as we call him, used to belong to my grand
father, Seth Judd, who lived at Shelburne
Fslls, Mass. The old gentleman got him
from sailor in Boston. have family
letters dated in 1870 in which old Putnam
is referred to as a prettie bird which hath
been taught to say after one much OF our
New England primer and certain of DR..
Watts hymns for the young do not
see that the parrot is not as young as ever.
He is very docile and talks as cleverly as a
child of six. His plumage is still bright,
but his sight has failed him somewhat.
The way to tell the age of parrot is to
count the rings on his claws. A new ring
Tor wrinkle) comes every tenth year. odd
Putnam has nine of these rings and a
starter for the tenth"

STURGEON, Mo, June Son May 20 the
dead body of Peter Koerner, cooper liv-
ing in st. Louis, was found on the railroad
track near here. The circumstances of the
death were suspicious, and several negroes
were arrested. Tonight Pete Hall, one of
the prisoners, confessed that he had
murdered Koerner for the purpose of rob-
berry. He had killed him by hitting him over
the head with brick while his victim was
sleeping in a freight car, and had after
ward carried the body on his back three
quarters of mile from the car and placed
IL on the railr Dad track.

Republican Tricks.
angola Democrat


Governor Gray has issued a formal proc
lamation declaring the laws passed by the
last Legislature to have gone into effect.
but" says the Anderson Democrat, "the
act of the Governor by no means condonas
the violations of law peTpetrated by Griffin,
the nondescript Republican Secretary of
State" We understand the Secretary of
State has been making some sort
of explanation for his neglect
to include in his publication
of the acts a statement of the financial
condition of the State. But however
plausible he may make it appear from his
own point of view, the real reason for the
omission is doubtless to be found in a desire
on the part of the Republican managers to
keep from the people the truth IN regard
to the management of the States funds
by the retiring Democratic officials It will
be remembered that during the last cam
paign Republican stump orators and the
press of that party had a good deal to cay
about the need of investigating the State
treasury, and intimating that the money
could not all be accounted for. They plead
with incredulous taxpayers the need of
change, that the books might be opened
and the wicked Democrats brought to a
strict account for their reckless extrava-
gance and malfeasance in Office.
Well, they succeeded in getting a
change. a Republican succeeded Mr..
Cooper as keeper of the States pub-
lie funds. The books were opened, the &c
counts found balanced and the cash all
safe. But, lest the people should know
the truth-how Republican strikers have
lied about this matter and slandered Dem
ocTats, the partisan Secretary of State with
holds the official statement upon this point
of vital interest to every taxpayer, and
which it is his sworn duty under the Con-
stitution to make public. Such dema-
goguey merits only the strongest con-
demdation.

When the liver is indolent, as it must neces-

odd Sunday Laws in England.
London Queen.l


A case which came before the Blooms
bury County Court Last week is of some in
terest with reference to Sunday trading.
The plaintiff, decribed as "a lady OF
means" sought to recover from the defend
ant, dog fiancier, f8 as money paid for
dog alleged to have been sold to her I'M
der false pretenses. Objection was taken to
the claim by the defendants counsel on
the ground that the dog was bought
and paid for on Sunday In
conformation of the provisions of
an old act OF Charles IL, which makes it
an offense to transact ordinary business on
Sunday. It was admitted that the defend
ant had, by selling the dog. violated the
law, and made himself liable to penalty
but still it was argued that the contract
entered into on Sunday was void, and,
therefore, no action could be maintained.
The Judge decided that this objection held
good, and that the defendant could not
legally enter into q contract in pursuit of
bis daily occupation on Sabbath

The "Reformers" Showed Up.
TRushville Jacksonian.l


Several prominent citizens of Nashville,
Tenn. visited Indianapolis last Tuesday to
visit the charitable institutions of the city.
They had been selected by citizens of that
city to visit institutions of that kind in
Louisville and Chicago and had been at
those places. They said the asylums at In
dianapolis were the most complete they
had visited, and that the men IN charge of
them were wise and competent. That
shows the rascality of the House investi-
CATION and the Republican campaign civil
service investigation report.

The business boom now prevailing over
this country is evidence that Democratic
success nationally was the very opposite
from a public calamity. What will the
Republican denaagogue use as a battle cry
enslaved; the rebel debt has not been paid !;
and hard times are succeeded by prosperity.
What then, will they harp on next time?
